Murderous Assault.

Saturday night about IL o'clock, Michael
McDonough was standing near Gorham's
corner with friend when fellow appeared
in front of him and without word made a
desperate thrust at him with a clasp knife.
McDonough endeavored to dodge the blow,
which was a murderous one, but the point of
the knife struck his forehead and ploughed
a course straight downward, across his fore
head down the right side of his nose and
through the lip, almost seyering the latter.
McDcnough instinctively closed with his
assailant, but blinded with the blood that
flowed from the wound he was obliged to let
go. His assailant escaped through conyen-
lent alley way. The whole affair happened
so quickly and so quietly that officers stand
ing near had no time to reach the scene.
McDonough was taken to the station and
DR.. King called to dress the wound. 1t was
not deep one, but numerous small blood
vessels had been cut and the victims face
was sight to behold. DR.. King took three
stitches in the cut on the forehead. and was
proceeding to close the cut in the lip when
McDonough weakened at the pain and re-
fused to let him go ahead. Expostulation
was useless and he went from the station
with his wound but partly dressed The
assailant is not known. McDonough did
not recognize him as his eyes was blinded
with blood almost before he realized that he
had been assaulted. DR.. King said that the
wound although not dangerous, would leave
a bad scar.

Adulterated MoIasses.

The adulteration of molasses has grown to
such an extent that the sale Of pure foreign
is said to be materially diminished in conse-
quence. This adalteration is serious injury
to the baker and housekeeper for molasses
mixed with glucose loses its fermenting
qualities, which are absolutely necessary
when it is added to other ingredients for
baking purposes, and hence renders, in some
respects, receipts for mixing often useless.
To supply this defect, however. the pro-
fessional mixer has at length risen to the
height Of the situation, and, by means of
certain chemicals, molasses adulterated with
glucose, ETC., may be made to take the APP
pearance of fermentation. OF course such
artificially produced fermentation, besides
being unhealthy, is hazardous in the manu-
facture of good, pure goods, yet INSCRIPTIONS
dealers are palming it off in the market as
the ''pure article" The old test was to
pour out few drops upon piece of paper
and add pinch of soda, which will turn the
pure article light and the fermentation will
commence, while in the mixed stuff it turns
dark and no fermentation takes place. But
the skilful adulterator has fixed all this so
that some other means must be furnished or
the baker is not liable to get moasses at all
when paying for the supposed genuine ar
ticle. 1t is estimated by parties in position
to know that, at least one-half of all the
molasses sold has been fixed in some way by
adding chemicals and vile mixtures of vari-
GUS sorts too numerous to mention.

on the. city of Mexico at City Hall, April

lens career as railroad explorer and builder,
and as high government official in the

to appreciate his cordial cooperation in their
researches in the Southwest. AS an amateur
photographer he has carried his camera with
him on several expeditions, and many of
the magnificent views that Illustrate his lee
lures are of scenes photographed by himself
Coming east from the city of Mexico late
this season after the regular lecture courses
had been already filed, he has been invited
to speak in many special and supplemental
courses, and has met warm welcome and
favor in all. There is a common desire to
hear from acknowledged authority of the
subjects on which he treats, and he already
has engagements for the next season in most
of the-leading cities of the East. Mr.. Pullen
will devote the summer to the completion of
a literary work on which he is now engaged.

there is such state of affairs existing at To
polobampo Bay as told of by .colonists who
have written home or made their way to the

that his influence was nothing compared
with that of Eaton and Hawkins. The paper
